Xbox Live Gold Membership

therokerroar · 10-10-2009 9:58am #1

Alright lads and lasses, just wondering where the cheapest place to purchase a 12 month subscription to XBL is? Be it on the internet or a games store? I'm looking for instant delivery, and if possible, if it's an internet based source, for them to take Laser or 3V Card.

Also, on a side note, I'm wondering where the cheapest place to purchase Fifa 10 is now? Preferablly I'd like to be able to purchase the XBL Membership and Fifa 10 for under about €80, optimistic I know.

try http://www.live-codes.com/.28.99 sterling for a year membership.Think its 60 euro in the shops here.they email you a pic of the card within minutes of you buying it EDIT:just noticed they is sold out!

Cant help ye with fifa but would recommend pro evolution soccer instead:pac:

Lucious Sweet · 14-10-2009 10:39pm

Just keep checking every few days lads.
They were all out on Fri and Sat last week. I then checked late on Sunday night and they were back in stock.
Well worth the wait.

Another reccomendation for Live Codes here, absolutely fantastic service, I didn't even have enough time to step away from my computer before they had emailed me my code.

13 months of XBL for €35, cracking value and service.

It was a friend in the UK who told me about that site said he used it no problems. Haven't tried it yet myself did you give BT11AA a shot?

Does anyone know if Live subscription cards are region locked? I've read some conflicting views around the web. Say if I was to buy a 12 month subscription card from ebay US, would it work with an Irish Live account on a PAL console?

they are not. microsoft point cards ARE though. there is European and US.

You can forget about live codes if you haven't allready purchased from them.
they have just introduced telephone verification and is uk only.

"Unfortunately looks like our telephone verification only works in the United Kingdom. Yes it is a new security feature we added at the weekend. Unfortunately some customers ruin it for the majority of us. This new telephone system will not effect previous customers, they will not be prompted for telephone verification.
Thanks,

anthonymcg · 20-10-2009 5:48pm

Ah nuts. Buying a 360 over the next couple of weeks and was going to use live-codes. What's with the phone verification? Can I give my mate's number?

Dr.Slurm · 20-10-2009 11:58pm

Just bought a 12 month subscription on ebay for €29. They emailed me the code about a minute after I payed and it worked fine. They've got about 70 left if anyones interested.

Looking at the A1 Gaming fella's listing now, it says

These codes are for use in the UK only

Please do not purchase if you live outside the UK

Has his listings always said that?

Lenny · 09-11-2009 9:25pm

hmm, not too sure, here the link to my winning bid

Got my subscription here a few days ago for £29.99:
http://www.gamesbite.com/xbox-live-gold-12--month-gold--digital-delivery-3-p.asp so worked out less than €35 via paypal.
Striaght after I purchased it I got the code of the card via the live chat thing so was very fast!
So only thing that upset me was the fact I bought last years subscription via the xbox at €59.99 ouch!

Just bought a 3 month subscription (~€12.42) from this guy (I don't live in the UK btw). Same as; I got the code in an email within a minute. Redeemed it and works fine. Thanks poster.

Edit: Worked for me, but:
